She and several other writers new to the Torchwood fold are hard at work with Russell T. Davies on the fourth season.

Smacks of favourite-ism.

Torchwood has been crying out for this. There has been some great writing within the show, but there has been some iffy stuff too, Jane getting onboard means a huge great ginormous tick in the plus column.
(Also hoping this means more James Marsters.)

I'm hoping it's a cunning plan. Starts with Jane writing for Torchwood and then she moves onto ...Ripper ;-)
A girl can dream can't she?

Torchwood needed Jane and now just needs more Captain John

I'm still waiting for them to show Jack's 'swashbuckling hero' side a bit more, though....

Also put me down for some more Rhys and PC Andy, if at all possible.

And I'm sure Torchwood will do ok in it's fourth season. It's really a show that started of as terribly silly with few and far between moments of brilliance. But there were already a lot more good eps in S2 (even if there still was the occasional mistep) and S3 was made of pure gold.
So stands to reason that S4 is going to be good as well, especially with these news.

Unless they put together another excellent ensemble and don't kill everyone off, this time.
Talk about Joss, he's a piker at killing off main characters, compared to whoever made those decisions on TW.
Shey | August 07, 04:03 CET
I never liked Gwen. And I love Doctor Who Captain Jack but there are only a few episodes of Torchwood where I find him as likable.
Sure, Joss kills off my favorite characters. But in those shows there are other characters still alive that I care about. Well, hopefully there will be a bunch of new, cool characters in the new season.
theclynn | August 07, 04:17 CET
Yes, three of the main Torchwooders are dead, but if they utilize supporting characters like Andy, Rhys, Martha, and Mickey, it will fill the void and complement the new regular characters.
I've generally liked Gwen except for her romantic feelings for Jack, so I'm glad she's part of it.
I hope US Torchwood doesn't back away from Jack getting involved in another same-sex relationship.

On the Ianto front I vote that he comes back as the imaginary conscience (a-la Dexter's dad) of... wait for it... Gwen. B*tch deserves to be haunted a little.

That's entirely besides the point, since the issue would be the modern Doctor Who, not the old-school Doctor Who.
But the point of the response remains the same: there are some references, but nothing that would derail being able to follow/enjoy Torchwood if you don't watch Doctor Who.

Judging by some of the sequences Starz show on Sparticus, I'm guessing they don't have any problems with showing same sex relationships.

...Would it be referred to Season 2 or 5 now?
